Snowbird's official events calendar lists Opening Day for the 2026-27 winter season on a tentative date of November 27, 2026, conditions permitting. Opening Day marks the start of lift-served skiing and snowboarding in Little Cottonwood Canyon at one of Utah's highest and longest ski seasons. The exact date is weather- and snow-dependent and may shift earlier or later; Snowbird publishes the confirmed date and any first-chair details as the season approaches. No lift-ticket, pass, or celebration specifics are yet detailed on the current listing.

Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort

Open to the public. Guests need appropriate ability for open terrain and a valid lift-access product to ride the lifts.

This is a resort event rather than a judged or timed competition; no results feed applies.
